This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldnât otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that’s the way I like it!

Great video! Emirates' old first class has more must watch signs that the new 'Gamechanger' one?
I know euro-business is what it is but Iâm surprised you didnât still decide to ding Swiss for blocked economy seats in business. Or is the idea that itâs all relative to other airlines in the regionâŠ?
My thought is, they do that because they can and itâs what everyone else is doing. Doesnât make it good or right.
It's quite amazing that so many other airports use Dubai's DNATA ground handling crew.
Great review. Bonus points for the underutilised 'doozy' and the 'teeny-tiny'.
Liked the look of that meal.
Still have an aspiration to fly east, with Swiss (and Finnair) but connection timings always seem too tight to trust.
Why do you not tell your favorite Indian airline? Any issue?
Hey man, big fan of your work. Just want to say at the 4:23 the audio has a small blurp. Not sure if you can do anything once the video is posted but just wanted you to know. Keep up the awesome videos!
I absolutely despise euro-business class… always annoys me when flying within europe
So which airline is the #1 âmost consistentâ?
Clean, modern, efficientâŠnothing more needed. Thank you for this review ððŒ
Excited for the virgin cruise
That gate is so much nicer than the agricultural one BA flights arrive at ð€£ Agree with you about the consistent pleanantness. SWISS biz was the first time i tried Tete De Moine and the FA took time to explain what it was. The A220 is such a pretty plane – like a mini Dreamliner ð
Just recently stumbled upon your channel, gotta say man, this is great stuff!! Keep up the good work!
Thoroughly enjoyed this as usual.
Fantastic video as always! Thanks for the review ð If you're ever back in South Africa you should maybe give SAA's long-haul options a go since they're starting up a few more routes. Would be cool to see how our long-haul flights stand up to other service providers.
Seemed good on the business side. I recently flew to New Delhi on one of their old A330, and that was a "meh" experience: old outdated IFE and only one meal proposition, vegetarian… The return flight on Lufthansa economy A350 was so much better…
great video as always kevin!
Always enjoy watching Kevin,,,,,,good or bad experience part of travelling,,,,,peace and happiness on your travels ððððð
I flew this same airline and aircraft to Geneva from Gatwick 2 years ago from London Gatwick (albeit in Economy) on my to a skiing trip. It's a nice little bird and the service on board was great, despite it being such a short flight. Would deffo do again.
I think the mystery dish is called "Katzenfutter mit FrischkÀse"
ð
Bundnerfleisch is basically air dried beef "prosciuto". It would look similar to carpacio. The other " thing" seems to be a a cross between cold pulled pork (or veal) and "Rillets". It is however not what you would cal a typical Swiss dish.
Nice, thanks for sharing ð
Beautiful Air Craft,SWISS Is The Best Airlines In Lufthansa Group My Opinion.Great Video
LMAO the statistics board is hilarious for anyone who's been to LHR
Quite literally everyone complains how bad is getting to the airport , transfer or check-in ð
Thank You âïž
Thanks for the info + video!
Just landed in LA to cover the Oscars….but first…some TFFT with a splash of sunshine.
Very good report! Thx
Lufthansa is quite the group. Have you flown Condor?
Thanks for the video. Re Star Alliance lounges at LHR T2 please note that the Singapore Airlines lounge is about to / maybe already has close for renovation. It will be closed for many months.
As always, amazing review! It's great to see my home airport featured ð
Good review, thanks for sharing. I've just been looking at Swiss for UK (MAN) via Zurich to Cape Town.
The thought of ending up on Lufthansa for the long haul makes it much less attractive.
I would love to try swiss' 777 & 220, given the opportunity. As for LHR t2 lounges I'd go for SQ or AC, but heard the United club was a solid choice.
Looking forward to your LX review from LCY.
LHR's terminal 2…doesn't seem as good as terminal 5 but at least better than terminal 3. Terminal 3 is the worst, like a drab and worn-out warehouse. As for the A220, how does the cabin feel like? Does it feel cramp? Legroom and looks aside, how was the seating comfort?
From ICN to LHR on ASIANA in BUSINESS
Kevin you must be the fittest most adaptable person on the planet- long hauls, who knows where you eat and what you eat/sleep to jump from plane to plane – will take me a week to get over esp I need a shower and toilet and privacy….not to forget anxiety that is getting worse by the day! Good luck with your venture mate. I wonder if my friend Jennifer Knecht or her partner were at the helm of the Swiss flight as both are pilots….
How do you think of Qantas A220's cabin
Hi Kevin, a while ago you changed your intro and told us to wait a while before we gave an honest review. I can now say that I 100% preferred the old intro. The music, structure and general energy of how your videos used to begin was much, much better. I obviously still enjoy your videos and I'm an avid follower/subscriber. I'm just giving you my opinion as per your instruction several months ago.
Happy travels!
A220 doesnât exist it called the C series ok
I have no idea what the food is. Aside from the beetroot, it looks like a dessert plate and not a main at all. Strange that there was no menu in business class to tell you!
Hi Kevin great review. I used to fly Swiss from Asia to transfer to small euro cities via Zurich. My only complaints were ordinary food and their cabin announcements were in 3 or 4 languages and so took forever. Is that still the same?
Another transit through London, another bright and sunny day. As someone who lives here, please can you switch flights at Heathrow more often? Like, daily during the summer?
